Won't happen
The cycle of surplus will only last so long, and the price will go up when supply dwindles. Look at K98, Lee Enfields, Garands, and M14s. It does not take a genius to understand the market. Prices will rise at some point.

If the Dippers get elected, and start rumbling about re-classifcation, you won't be able to ship them fast enough to meet demand. The SKS is high on the Miramachi White Shirt list of rifles they'd like to see re-classified.
If any rumbling of that starts, then people will buy as many of them as they can before a registry hits, and like 1/2 the guns in Canada before the first registry, most will simply "disappear."
Bans aside, as a solid semi auto rifle, they're a value at $500 - can't get anything as reliable and robust for anywhere near that $$ new (closest contender would be the mini-30, which runs twice the price). When the import market evaps, they'll hit the $500-$700 range, which is what they're approaching south of the border where new imports long ago got banned.
Much higher than that? Probably not. Getting past that price, it becomes easier to step up and buy a new rifle for not much more $$.

SKS is at max a $200 rifle & will be for many years to come .
Unless the Gov changes it's classification .
Pre-orders are horrible for everyone involved. They never go smooth. We will not be doing a pre-order to bankroll this project.
And you rationalize this by what logic?

Sounds like a hint at an upcomming sale :D
There should be another similar value surplus rifle that surfaces and replaces the Self loading Simonov Karbine by then...

Now You have my attention.
Don't the Chinese still have the tooling and can make a run of them whenever they want? I've had a Chinese SKS for 20 years and it's gone through thousands and thousands of rounds without much fuss.
375 Ruger is the NEW KING of the .375's. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!
